Read moreEvent Presentations and Thematic Session Planning...
I just had a great time at Drupal Camp in Brooklyn yesterday.
Might we review the presentations and sessions that are
proposed for this pending event?
Streamlining these event offerings to support the advancement of expertise seems pretty wise.
I happen to be focused on deployments and migrations from Drupal 6 to Drupal 7.
That is one complex set of topics.
Others will want to learn the MANY new facets of Drupal 7, including but not restricted to:
- Views 3.x and how views must be coded to play nice with blocks and contexts, etc.
- Views database performance solutions.
Ctools developer tools demo
Would anyone be interested in demoing some code that they've written using the Ctools API tools? I'd especially like to see some examples of the Exportables, Ajax and Form Wizard APIs. A lot of sessions that I've been to touch on the tools but there haven't been any code samples or explanation of the methodology behind the code.

Drupal Gardens is Acquia's Drupal 7 SaaS product.
Hosted and maintained Drupal - similar to Wordpress.com
It is promising, but is it ready for commercial use? There are already 10K+ DG sites!
Limitations such as no Calendar/Event modules are restricting its use, but it will surely grow in its capabilities in time.
Read moreGraphic Design + User Interface Design
I am a noob. Are there any other graphic design-trained drupal newbies coming? If so, can we group up and learn Drupal together? I like making new friends. :)
Read moreMaking accurate estimates/proposals for projects BoF
I spoke with a lot of people lately who were interested in talking about this topic, so I would like to get a BoF going where we can all share our experiences with estimating project durations. It would be nice to hear from people who work with a company and those who are freelancers as well, to get a feel for what's common and what's not when getting a proposal together.
Read moreCOD BOF (Conference Organizing Distribution)
COD stands for Conference Organizing Distribution and the goal of the project is to facilitate coordination of and participation in conferences via the conference website. COD can improve the efficiency of setting up a powerful website for both Drupal and non-Drupal conferences and events and provide value to non-developers and developers alike.
Let's get together to discuss COD and potentially work on some patches!
See the COD Roadmap.

Drupal Open Curriculum BOF
I did this in D4DBoston, and would like to continue the momentum.
The Drupal Open Curriculum project was created to allow for creation of open source courseware for Drupal.
It is live on gitorious at http://gitorious.org/drupal-open-curriculum, with more information at http://gitorious.org/drupal-open-curriculum/pages/Home.
In this BOF, we will discuss:
